Carnivores as the healthy for environment

large animals such as lions, leopards, wolves and bears are in decline, due to declining habitats and
persecution by humans. this also has a negative impact on the environment, perhaps partly formed
by outdated-views that predators are harmful for other wildlife. Human actions cannot fully replace
the impact of large carnivores. Because these large carnivores are an intrinsic part of an ecosystems
biodiversity. For example, the loss of a large carnivore may mean in the short term the herbivores
they prey on may increase in numbers but this can also result in a deterioration of the environment
as the herbivores can graze more, largely unchecked. Human intervention to perform the same
services would be costlier.
Putting economic values on biodiversity
Some things are quite priceless but people also see them as in sense of money. And they tell about
biodiversity in the view of economic values. They do so to tell us about the magnitude if issue so that
we can understand the real value of that part of the nature. And to understand the real value of that
thing to the humanity. In a recent report, The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity for
National and International Policy Makers 2009, TEEB provided the following example of sectors
dependent on genetic resources:
